Evidence:

Elizabeth Barrett to Hugh Stuart Boyd, c.October 1835: 'Did you ever hear of Dr Wardlaw's treatise upon infant baptism? It is very clearly and forcibly written, -- and altho' I cannot bring my mind to agree with him on all points, yet I think that the main question is placed by him in a satisfying light [notes having copied remarks of Wardlaw's, concerning language in Greek testament, on flyleaf of own Greek testament]'.
